have client generate text file of all unallowed moves while driving to view on computer
I know the system technically does this automatically but I was thinking today as I was going through the cartouche fixing every intersection in my hometown, how it'd be handy if the client generated a text file showing all the things you did that you "shouldn't" have. Almost every intersection in my area has restricted turns that simply don't exist (it's a small town, there's only one turn restriction and no one ways, so i realize this is easier than most) but I was thinking it'd be handy if I could open a txt file generated by the client that says "Turn from First street to Main street not allowed in cartouche". This would then make it much easier to know what intersections need fixed and what ones don't. As I said, I know the client does this automatically, but it also requires repeated input to confirm it's not any number of errors that can occur, but I thought this would be a handy for us that are vigilant map editors.

Alarm notification on new version available, OTA download on BB (optional)
It would be interesting to check when you start the application, if a new version. On Blackberry devices, could have a link to download OTA or AppWorld

Add flock cams as a notification as you do police
Flock cams are acting as a speed detection (Radar) device and should be considered a speed trap. Since there is no way to defend the need to drive faster as in passing an 18 wheeler or a hazardous driver or load.

"Live animal near the road" hazard
I would like to suggest adding a new hazard reporting option in Waze: "Live animal near the road" (or a similar category).
At the moment, Waze allows users to report roadkill, but there is no dedicated option for reporting a live animal standing or moving near the roadside. I believe this would be a valuable addition for both road safety and wildlife protection.
Many serious accidents happen because drivers suddenly encounter animals that are about to cross the road. If other drivers received an early warning that a live animal had been spotted nearby, they could slow down, become more alert, and be prepared for unexpected movement. This could help prevent collisions, reduce injuries and fatalities involving both people and animals, and improve overall road safety.
Unlike reporting roadkill after a collision has already occurred, reporting a live animal creates an opportunity to prevent accidents before they happen. In many regions, especially rural areas, encounters with deer, moose, wild boar, elk, and other wildlife are common. A simple warning could make a meaningful difference.
I believe this would be a relatively small feature with the potential for a significant positive impact. It aligns perfectly with Waze's mission of helping drivers stay informed about real-time road hazards and making roads safer for everyone.
Thank you for considering this suggestion. I hope the team will consider adding this feature in a future update.

התראת רכב כבד בשולי הדרך
חשוב מאוד וודאי ימנע תאונות! ההתראה הידועה על רכב בשולי הכביש מופיעה הרבה פעמים ונהגים התרגלו אליה וכשמדובר ברכב כבד הסכנה לתאונה עולה משמעותית במיוחד גם כשהרכב הכבד תופס את כל השול, אני מציע להוסיף התראה מיוחדת לכך ולסייע מאוד בהפחתת תאונות אולי גם אפשרות של ״רכב כבד״ אחרי לחיצה על ״רכב בשול הדרך״.

Display Current Neighborhood (Urban) or City / Next City (Highways) on Top Bar
Title: Display Current Neighborhood (Urban) or City / Next City (Highways) on Top Bar
Description:
The Problem:
When driving, drivers often lose track of their general location. In cities, they don't know which neighborhood they are in. On highways, they lose track of which municipality they are passing through or which city is coming up next. The current interface lacks this contextual geographical reference.The Solution:
Add a smart location indicator on the top bar of the map screen that dynamically changes based on the driving environment:In Urban Areas: Display only the Current Neighborhood (e.g., "Downtown"), keeping the screen clean since the city name is already known.
On Highways/Rural Roads: Display the Current Municipality / Next City (e.g., "Passing through: Princeton / Next: Trenton").
The Benefit:
This gives drivers perfect spatial awareness tailored to their context. It prevents visual clutter in the city while providing critical geographic milestones during road trips, all with a single, quick glance.Title: Display Current Neighborhood (Urban) or City / Next City (Highways) on Top Bar

Lane by lane guidance Display update
Waze should add lane by lane guidance showing what lanes to be in on the map as well as the ui pop-up(similar to Apple Maps and Google maps) With wazes crowd sourced traffic reporting this could be incredibly powerful especially if lane reporting is implemented afterwards.

Baby changing places near me marked by Wazers, there is no more places to check that, it would very amazing for roadtrippers with babies. Sometimes diaper change is more important than fuel

Change "Pothole" to "Hazardous Road Surface"
This would hopefully eliminate people reporting every minor pothole that doesn't pose any risk and enable users to report others forms of damage ie; tree roots raising road surface etc

Where did keep on top during calls went?
Where is it? it used to be under Settings -> General. When a phone call arrives, Waze disappears, it makes the driver have to fiddle with their phone, which is illegal and very dangerous. Where did this option go on iOS 26?
Please bring this back, this is kinda urgent tbh, given the risk involved.2 votes -
New tag
I would like to propose a new tag to go with the police category. With the proliferation of license plate readers, I think there should be a new, separate tag for those. In my area, numerous people are tagging the readers as mobile police cameras, which is incorrect. I think it would benefit all users to add this tag.

Abandoned Car Silent Alert
Be good to be able to mark an abandoned car - currently can only use the orange "car stopped in shoulder". If a car is stopped with hazard lights on a visual and audible alert is appropriate as people may be working on it/around the vehicle. If the vehicle is abandoned though a warning is not necessary - a lot of people in my area use Waze and they slam on the brakes because ALL their alerts are on by default and they don't switch them off. This is totally unnecessary and dangerous on highways when the vehicle has been abandoned. An option for a grey coloured map pin/icon for "abandoned" with only a visual alert is needed.
